“What’s this?” Meng Xiaonan leans over and whispers into An Chuxia’s ear . “I see what you mean about making a ‘long story short’ . We can’t concern ourselves with this now . Haven’t we suffered enough?”
An Chuxia glares, but Xiaonan continues talking . “Rest assured, this matter will be alright . Thirty-seventy . ”
“Yeah, right! Thirty you . ” An Chuxia kicks her on her rear . Xiaonan jumps to avoid her foot . She sticks her tongue out when Chuxia missed . Calmly, she lowers her voice . “I get seventy . Haven’t we agreed?”
An Chuxia holds her breath . She doesn’t want to impulsively strangle her friend . “Is this really hard for you to understand? Fifty-fifty . No more discussion . ”
Chuxia covers her mouth as she smiles . “Fifty-five . ” Every time Xiaonan bargains, she’ll change the midpoint . Then she and Xiaonan negotiate . But that leaves steward Han really confused . Fifty-five? Sixty-four? What is it?
Once the girls reach a milk tea shop, they decide to sit by the window . One curls one of her legs on the seat while the other sits virtuously on the chair . Both seem to be tired . As steward Han excuses himself to use the facilities, Chuxia glares at Meng Xiaonan . “Don’t you think you’ve gone too far? Steward Han gave you over two-hundred thousand! What’s worse is you put money as a priority and that doesn’t sit well with me . ”
Xiaonan’s eyes narrow carefully . “Isn’t it convenient?… Don’t you want to run away?”
Despite her contemptuous stare, An Chuxia says, “You really know me . I need to pay Qilu’s aging mother enough money for tuition and board, but I also need money to rent a house… So, my life has a main goal, and that’s money!”
Meng Xiaonan happily leans over and whispers,”In fact, your fiance is good, ah! He’s a standard, gold-plated handsome man! If you don’t like him, then share him with me!”
“Even you, ah!” She reluctantly smiles . “I won’t be able to explain it to you in a day or two what that assh*le has done, but regardless of how many days he gives me to apologize to him, I told him I hate him . ”
Suddenly, she remembers him say, “We don’t hate each other . At least, I don’t hate you now . ” She can’t help but feel her cheeks flush . Xiaonan sees her friend’s traitorous reaction and smiles . “Xiao laoda, you should be nicer to that assh*le… Whatever! What assh*le? You shouldn’t be… . ”
“Shut up!” She stares at Xiaonan coldly . “It’s impossible!”
“It’s only impossible if you say it’s impossible! Why should you react so harshly? Let me remind you, ah, it’s not like the tuition at Stein is not expensive . It’s like, two million! To these rich people, this isn’t much but for me… it’s not right! My aging mother now says I’m the daughter from a wealthy family . Ha!”
Surprised, An Chuxia immediately reacts . “Yeah, ah! Daughter of a wealthy family, it is good you remember me! My money saved you first . Now that we’re talking about money, I have to think of other matters… Like Ling Hanyu!”
She pulls her mobile from her pocket and starts searching for Ling Hanyu’s number in her address book . She presses the dial key… .
On the other side of the town, Ling Hanyu and Xiao Mingluo are summoned by Han Qilu downtown at the B District Black Street… .
